Art Wright of John Street in Seaforth wonders if anyone
can top this tomato he found in his garden. Looking like
multiple Siamese Twins the large cluster has at least seven
distinct tomatoes formed around a single stem and tips the
scales at" 1 lb. 10 1/2 oz. Mr. Wright grew the plant from
seed of the Early Anna Variety of tomato. He says that
no fertility drugs were used in producing the oddity.

his first stop on a 10-region tour
of Ontario where he will meet
the Directors of each of the 10
Development Councils.
The Provincial Tree:Surer
said he was impressed with the
proposed restructuring program
of the Midwestern Development
Council and said that the Council
is the only vehicle that can bring
together governments at all
levels along with the private
sector including business, Indus-
try and the man on the street.
James C. Hayter of Goderich,
President of M.O.R.D.C., said
he felt the meeting was one of
the best between Council and
Government and will lead to a
strengthening of the Council's
role in Regional Development in
Midwestern Ontario.
Allan Ross, Warden of Wet=
Wigton County and a Vice-Presi-
dent of the Development council
stated he felt that following the
Council's submission on the
Phase I, Design for Development
that will be made later this
month, that a joint effort will
be made by the Development
Council and the Provincial
Government to hold fUrther meet-
ings in an effort to settle the
problems and unanswered ques-
tions that arose during public
hearings a few months ago on the
Phase Analysis.
Reeve Charles Thomas of
Grey Township, Huron County,
said it appeared the Council had
made some headway in convincing
the Government that a better
financial arrangement must be
forthcoming in the future. He
said the Council made a strong
presentation during discussions
with the Minister on the subject
of finances and membership.
Mr. McKeough agreed with
Mrs. Betty McMillan, a member
of Stratford City Council and an
executive member of the
Development Council, when she
pointed out the role of the Coun-
cil has changed considerably
since its founding days in 1956:
The Provincial Treasurer
praised the Council for its alert-
ness and adoption to changing
conditions and times and that the
emerging role is probably more
in tune with today's concern for
quality and environment than
some other regions of the
Province.
Walter W. Gowing, General
Manager of the Midwestern
Development Council, is present-
ly preparing a document on the
future role of the Council fol-
lowing the Board's discussion
with Mr. McKeough that will
assist the Province in their
clarification of Regional Devel-
opment Councils and the role
they must assum.?. in the future.

was ideal in Britain but it was
also ideal for the Luftwaffe for

it had not been for the. courage
and skill of.the small air force
composed of British and Canadian

been lost. The Battle of Britain

E,VAEuNg.T1S3th,
Last FP rASidTay, there
were 69 persons at the Bingo,
' Last Saturday, Aug. 14th, the
Legion Lawn Bowling team parti-
cipated in the Ontario Lawn
Bowling tournament in Owen
Sound. The team was composed
of Comrades John Patterson
(Skip); Dr. Paul Brady (Vice

The date of September 15 has
been, set for a. vote on liquor
outlets in the Township of Hay,
and all eligible voters will have
the right to cast their ballots
for or against two separate
questions.
First question on the ballot is:
`are you in favour of the sale of
liquor under a dining lounge lic-
ence, for consumption with meals
on licenced premises. Second
question is: are you in favour of
the sale of liquor under a lounge
licence, for . consumption on
licenced premises.
While there has been some
mis-understanding as to who ' is
eligible to vote on a liquor issue
in Hay Township, clerk Wayne
Horner explained that 'Only
those persO'ns who are eligible to
vote in ta provincial election" will
be able to cast their ballots on
the liquor question. This means
that only permanent residents in
the municipality may vote, and
hundreds of cottage owners will
not be allowed voting rights
unless they are year-round resi-
dents.
Mr. Horner also explained
that he still has no ruling on the
status of persons who are over
18 years of age, but added that
he was expecting advice on this
matter in the very near future.
"Approximately 1100 to 1200
persons will be eligible at the
pfesent time, Mr. Horner
added. "However, if the age
limit is in effect on this type of
ballot, there will be considerably
more voters added to the list."
Hay Township- council was
first asked to conduct a vote on
the liquor question last spring,
but at that time 'they advised
the three property owners who
were asking for a vote that they
would require a petitiOn bearing
at least 25 per cent of the eligible
voters names, asking that such a
ballot take place.
